Our work spans three pillars:
-
We offer scholarships and programming, with a dedicated focus on HBCUs, that lift students toward their futures and lighten the load on the families behind them; every scholarship is an investment in a child and a mother's peace of mind
-
We are quipping young women with the skills of entrepreneurship, and the confidence that comes with them, to build businesses, careers, and futures their families can stand on
-
We provide resources, advocacy, and community for the mothers holding every one of those futures together
The Ari Davis Foundation is a Washington, D.C. nonprofit founded on a simple conviction: strong families are built at every stage of life, and every stage deserves investment.
We are governed by an eight-member board of attorneys, physicians, and community leaders.
